REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BANDUNG -- Deputy Chairman of the West Java Provincial DPRD from the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) faction, Iwan Suryawan criticized the still high level of open unemployment (TPT) in West Java for the August 2024 period which reached 6.75 percent, the highest compared to the national level of 4.91 percent. Based on data from the West Java Central Statistics Agency (BPS), it is stated that the high TPT is contributed by the non-absorption of the workforce at the Vocational High School (SMK) education level, namely 12.74 percent. West Java Province BPS data states that when viewed based on the highest level of education completed. TPT in August 2024 has the same pattern as August 2023. In August 2024, TPT from Vocational High School graduates still contributed the highest figure compared to graduates of other levels of education, namely 12.74 percent. "Not matching (in harmony) between vocational school graduates and industry needs is one of the causes of still high unemployment at the vocational school level," said Iwan Suryawan in Bandung City, West Java, Monday (11/11/2024). There needs to be goodwill from the West Java Provincial Government (Pemdaprov) to overcome the high TPT in West Java. Apart from having to match the vocational school education curriculum with current industrial needs, investment entering West Java is also expected to be able to absorb the workforce, one of which is at the vocational school level where unemployment is still high. "So perhaps this should be a joint study on how to increase job opportunities more widely by following today's economic developments and the development of technology-based (capital-intensive) jobs," stressed Iwan Suryawan. Apart from that, his party also criticized the wave of layoffs (PHK) that occurred recently due to various factors. Such as the relocation of several factories in West Java to other areas, imported products eroding local products to the point that employers consider the wage burden to be too high. "Of course this is related to government policy and employment policy, slowing economic growth conditions, wage costs and all kinds of things," he said. Indeed, almost all employees want better wages for welfare. However, there are several things to consider, namely, regarding the capabilities of the company, the goodwill of the company, both parties must be equally accommodated (regarding the wage burden for employers and welfare for workers) that must be considered.

MAJALENGKA, TINTAHIJAUcom – Majalengka Regency Public Service Mall (MPP) is certain to be ready to serve the public starting next week. This is because the Majalengka Regency Government (Pemkab) plans to hold a soft opening of the MPP in the near future. Acting Regent of Majalengka, Dedi Supandi, said that the MPP would provide approximately 15 types of services from OPD within the Majalengka Regency Government to vertical agencies ranging from the Ministry of Religion, BPN, Immigration, Bank BJB, and others. These include business permits, electronic KTP recording, student transfers, health facility permit verification, KIP recommendations, subsidized fuel recommendations, building approvals, making district plan certificates, transportation permits, environmental management statements, and taxpayer registration. "Including Hajj registration provided by the Majalengka Ministry of Religion, information on the land certificate process from BPN Majalengka, passport making from the Immigration Office, and Bank BJB which opens banking services at the MPP," he said, Tuesday (12/11/2024). His party also accelerated the development of the MPP within six months, because Majalengka Regency is one of seven out of 27 regions in West Java that does not yet have an MPP. So the Ministry of PANRB and the West Java Provincial Government issued a circular so that all regional governments have MPP this year. He said, in terms of human resources (HR) service officers at MPP outlets would also be prepared by each agency, and given regular training so that they could provide optimal service to the community. "We hope that the presence of MPP will have a positive impact on improving the community's economy, and make it easier to invest so that the investment value in Majalengka Regency increases," he said. The theme related to MPP was also brought up in the 10th episode of Majalengka Talking (Mabar) which took place at the Yudha Building, Majalengka Regency Government, Tuesday (12/11/2024). On this occasion, the Acting Regional Secretary of Majalengka Regency, Aeron Randi, was the resource person. He said that the presence of the MPP was to improve the quality of public services within the Majalengka Regency Government which has now received a very good assessment from the West Java Provincial Government with a score of 83. Apart from that, the MPP is an effort to integrate public services which were previously spread across various OPDs to vertical agencies. "If all this time you have to go round and round to each service, now you can just go to one place, namely MPP, because all the services are there. "The building concept is also a modern industrial space, and fun because the paint is colorful, so the people who come are also happy," he explained. Aeron confirmed that the Majalengka Regency Government is also preparing a plan to develop MPP, and increase the number of service outlets to 20 - 25 units in the future. Especially those related to licensing services to provide certainty to the public regarding licensing activities and ease of investment in Majalengka Regency. "This investment climate must be maintained to ensure that Majalengka Regency is truly investor friendly. "So that all permits related to investment, from spatial planning, environmental AMDAL, traffic AMDAL, and others can be processed, including export permits, also at MPP," he concluded. (SOURCE)

Residential areas that are easy to reach from centers of economic activity become magnets for the community. Therefore, determining location is very important in choosing a place to live for easy daily accessibility. In Bandung, West Java, one of the areas that is currently developing is South Bandung, which directly borders Bandung Regency, as a buffer area. The Bandung Regency area is also strategic because it is the economic pulse with the presence of many manufacturing industries which according to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) absorb more than 660 thousand workers. Industries located in the area range from garments, food and beverages, printing to other national scale industries. Industrial areas often have a large population and this has an impact on high demand for housing because it makes it easier in terms of accessibility. This opens up prospects for the development of the surrounding property. One of the developers in Bandung, namely Matahariland (PT Mentari Agung Mandiri) created the newest residential project, namely Bumi Siliwangi, which is located on Jalan Siliwangi, Baleendah District, Bandung Regency. The area currently being built, namely the Padjajaran Cluster, had its groundbreaking carried out on Monday (4/11). "We really maintain our reputation because we believe that trust from customers is very important. We even started construction on the latest Bumi Siliwangi project with ground breaking before launching," said Matahariland's General Manager of Sales and Marketing, Irving Baradian Tantoso. With more than 15 years of experience and 20 successfully built projects, Matahariland continues to strive to meet people's demand for comfortable, modern and quality housing. Matahariland is trying to prove that it is a consistent developer by successfully selling more than 4,000 housing units. Bumi Siliwangi's location is strategic because it is surrounded by industrial areas stretching across Dayeuhkolot, Tegalluar, Rancaekek, to national strategic industrial locations in South Bandung. Toll road access is adjacent to the Padaleunyi Toll Road. The nearest health facilities are also affordable, including Al Ihsan Hospital, West Java Province and Muhammadiyah Hospital, South Bandung. The location is also close to Telkom University. According to Irving, property investment has a big influence on occupancy in the surrounding neighborhood and in the residential area itself. Conditions in the area around the location that continue to progress are usually accompanied by further development of infrastructure and public facilities. “One of the important things in property investment is occupancy. Because this occupancy greatly influences future prices. Occupancy greatly influences comfort and price. In terms of investment, launching the project is not the only factor but also the occupancy of the area. "If the occupancy is high, it means it is promising in terms of investment and comfort," said Irving. (SOURCE)

JAKARTA - MG Motor Indonesia emphasized its commitment to strengthening the electric vehicle market in Indonesia. This commitment was realized through the inauguration of the electric car battery assembly facility built with UABS Indonesia. The assembly facility is located in Greenland International Industrial City (GIIC), Kota Deltamas, Cikarang, Bekasi, West Java. To realize this assembly line, the two companies injected investment worth IDR 110 billion. "UABS investment reached 50 million yuan or around IDR 110.8 billion. We also see that President Prabowo really supports renewable energy. I am sure that Mr Prabowo can encourage the government to accelerate the development of energy and electric vehicle batteries in Indonesia," said Guo Junhua, Managing Director UABS Co. LTD, at the inauguration ceremony in Cikarang, West Java, Tuesday (4/11/2024). This collaboration gave birth to a battery pack factory called PT Unified Advanced Battery System Indonesia (UABS). The factory shares are controlled by SAIC-CATL with a composition of 67 percent (SAIC 51 percent and CATL 49 percent), while the other 33 percent is owned by the Kentjana Group. As an initial stage, the UABS factory will assemble batteries for Morris Garage (MG) vehicles which are under SAIC. This assembly process uses battery components supplied directly from CATL. Currently, the domestic content level (TKDN) for these batteries is still around 10 percent, but this will continue to be increased over time. MG Motor Indonesia hopes that battery assembly in Indonesia can provide great benefits for consumers, especially in after-sales service. The existence of this factory will speed up the repair process if damage occurs to the electric car battery. "The existence of this factory will be very helpful if the battery malfunctions or is damaged. Repairs will be much faster because the components are already available here," said He Guowei, CEO of MG Motor Indonesia. Will MG Electric Car Prices Decrease? With the battery assembly collaboration between MG Motor Indonesia and PT UABS Indonesia, the question arises as to whether this step will reduce the price of MG electric cars in Indonesia. Currently, MG offers two electric car models, namely the MG4 EV and MG ZS EV, each of which is priced at around IDR 400 million. He Guowei, CEO of MG Motor Indonesia, stated that this assembly facility will indeed simplify the production process and reduce operational costs. "There is a positive impact on production costs which can make our car prices more competitive than before," said Hu Gouwei in Cikarang, West Java. However, the man who is familiarly called Alec emphasized that despite cost efficiencies, MG will not reduce the prices of the MG4 EV and MG ZS EV in the near future. He explained that price reductions can affect the perception of product value in the eyes of consumers. "Consumers definitely like price wars, but all brands have their own calculations. If the price goes down, the value of the product could also decrease in the eyes of consumers. For now, we will not reduce prices, even though this is one of consumers' hopes," explained Alec. This locally assembled battery is planned to be used in the latest MG model which will be launched in Indonesia. This facility allows MG to offer electric cars at more competitive prices. "This factory will make our products more competitive. We will use these batteries for our new products, thereby increasing the value and competitiveness of products, not only in terms of price, but also quality," added Alec. MG also plans to launch a number of new electric car models in the near future. With this facility, MG is optimistic that it can reduce the overall selling price of their electric vehicles. (SOURCE)

TRIBUNNEWS.COM, JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs (Menko Ekonomi) Airlangga Hartarto stated that domestic investment must be able to grow 10 percent so that economic growth can reach 8 percent according to the target of Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto. According to him, apart from investment, the government also needs to encourage exports in the downstream sector, service sector and new economic development to achieve this target. He conveyed this at the National Coordination Meeting of the Central Government and Regional Government at the Sentul International Convention Center (SICC), Bogor Regency, West Java, Thursday (7/11/2024). "What we have to encourage is that we must maintain the consumption sector, investment must grow by around 10 percent, and exports grow 9 percent, and the sector remains downstream, the service sector, tourism, construction and housing, the digital economy, the development of a new economy, namely semiconductors , and energy transition," said Airlangga. Airlangga said that Indonesia could become the highest green energy producer in the world. This has been proven by the development of 10 gigawatts of hydro energy in North Kalimantan. "Then, the areas we are building there could also become new growth centers, where they could become centers of industry, green hydrogen, ammonia, even for other downstream industries," said Airlangga. According to Airlangga, Indonesia can achieve economic growth of 8 percent. Because this happened during President Soeharto's leadership. At that time, the Indonesian economy grew 8.2 percent, driven by the manufacturing, industrial, textile, automotive, construction and investment sectors which grew at a high rate of 14.6 percent. Apart from that, growth in household consumption and exports in the Crude Palm Oil (CPO), textiles and oil and gas (oil and gas) sectors. "So, if the President asked us to grow by 8 percent, this is possible, because we have achieved that," he explained. (SOURCE)

TRIBUNJABAR.ID, BANDUNG - Muhammad Romli, member of Commission III of the West Java DPRD from the PPP party encourages the Provincial and Regency/City Governments in West Java to create an investor-friendly investment climate. Romli said, there are many benefits to be gained from the presence of investors, ranging from employment opportunities to economic improvement in investment areas. "In order to attract investors, the government must make investors comfortable, especially since there will be new toll roads in several areas," said Romli, Wednesday (6/11/2024). According to him, the large number of toll road accesses that have been built should have an impact on improving the economy. "If we look at Jakarta, currently Bogor and Bekasi, but with Cisumdawu and the new toll road, we can attract even more investors," he said. "But, what investment and that is a common thought. So, how can the provincial and regional governments create a friendly investment climate for investors," he added. Based on data, he said, in 2023 the Government is targeting investment entering West Java of around Rp. 188 trillion. "This has exceeded the target of IDR 210 trillion. This year, the target has increased to IDR 250 trillion. This must be monitored until December whether it is achieved or not, but at least there will be an increase in investment from 2023 to 2024," he said. This increase in investment, said Romli, must be directly proportional to labor absorption to reduce unemployment. "If investment increases, it should open up job opportunities, this is what the government must pay attention to. So, in order for those who have invested to continue, a more friendly investment climate must be created," he said. (SOURCE)

Jakarta (ANTARA) - Apple Inc. reportedly proposing an investment of nearly IDR 158 billion to produce more products in Indonesia, as a step to lift the ban on sales of the latest iPhones in the country. As quoted from the South China Morning Post, Tuesday (5/11), this plan involves establishing a factory in Bandung, West Java, in collaboration with a list of suppliers, according to a source who did not want to be named because he was not authorized to provide a public statement. The facility is planned to produce accessories and components for Apple devices. Apple has submitted its proposal to the Ministry of Industry, which last month blocked sales permits for the iPhone 16 on the grounds that the US company's local unit had not met the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) requirement of 40 percent for cellphones and tablets. The ministry is currently considering the proposal, which is not yet final and subject to change, and is expected to provide a decision soon, the source said. Neither Apple nor the Ministry of Industry responded to requests for comment. It is known that the Ministry of Industry will deactivate the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) serial number for iPhone 16 products that are proven to be sold domestically. This is because the latest series made by the giant company Apple has not been able to enter the domestic market, considering that there are investment commitments that have not been completed, so they have not yet obtained a Domestic Component Level (TKDN) certificate as an absolute requirement for selling in Indonesia. To get this certificate, Apple must invest in three schemes, namely the creation of a manufacturing factory, innovation, or through an application creation scheme.

Karawang, Jawa Barat (ANTARA) - The Investment and One Stop Integrated Services Service of Karawang Regency, West Java, recorded that investment realization in Karawang until the third quarter of 2024 reached IDR 48.6 trillion or has exceeded the 2024 target of IDR 42.7 trillion. Head of the Karawang Regency Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Service, Wawan Setiawan in Karawang, Wednesday, said that the investment realization achievement was quite high and even exceeded the target that had been set. "This year's investment realization achievement is very high, exceeding the target set by the central government of IDR 42.7 trillion," he said. He said that from the investment realization in the third quarter amounting to IDR 48.6 trillion which went to Karawang, the highest investment achievement came from foreign investment. It was stated that the realization of foreign investment amounted to IDR 42.05 trillion. Meanwhile, domestic investment achievements only reached IDR 6.6 trillion. According to him, from the investment achievements that entered Karawang, labor absorption in the January-September period was 16,660 people. Wawan said that the high realization of investment in Karawang was driven by the large number of foreign investors coming to Karawang. His party encourages large entrepreneurs to collaborate with MSMEs to create jobs. This was conveyed because even though the realization coming into Karawang was quite high, the majority of investors coming into Karawang were capital-intensive entrepreneurs who used high technology. "This capital-intensive company doesn't use too much labor. Instead, it relies more on technology so it doesn't absorb too much labor," he said. (SOURCE)

Bandung (ANTARA) - The West Java Provincial Government hopes that a business meeting between West Java business actors and a delegation from Heilongjiang Province, China, in Bandung, Tuesday, will increase the opportunity for investment realization in the Bamboo Curtain Country in West Java. Head of the West Java Industry and Trade Service (Disperindag), Noneng Komara Nengsih, revealed that during the activity at one of the hotels there were members of the delegation who were interested in investing in West Java. "There are those who express interest. West Java itself always opens its doors as wide as possible for investors to enter and open a business. From anywhere, as long as it meets the permits, it is very possible to invest," said Noneng in Bandung. Some of West Java's potential that is a factor in attracting investors to enter, he said, is related to high technology, both electronic equipment and food technology. "Because it is already advanced there. Maybe we should study the technology," he said. In this business meeting, 40 business actors from West Java met together with 34 delegates from Heliongjiang Province, with several processed food products, agricultural commodities such as coffee and herbs, as well as handicrafts being offered. It is hoped that from this event investors will be interested in buying, thereby increasing the number of West Java exports abroad. It is known that in 2023 it is targeted that investment realization in West Java will reach IDR 188.03 trillion and will reach around IDR 210.6 trillion.
